In the last Number of the Society's Journal I described some crystals of apatite (francolite variety) from St. Just district of Western Cornwall; I have now to bring to the notice of the members some very fine beautiful crystals of this same mineral which I have received from Mr. Henson.

In point of beauty and lustre they far surpass any of the apatites that have yet been found in England.

The crystals are in the form of hexagonal prisms, doubly terminated with basal planes and narrow pyramid planes; colour pale bluish green, translucent with strong vitreous lustre.

They vary in size from a pin's head to half-an-inch across.
